  • Glitter Text
    All That Glitters – Spark and Dazzle from the Permananent Collection co-curated by Janine LeBlanc and Roger Manley Randy and Susan Woodson Gallery January 23 – July 12, 2020 Through the ages, every human society has demonstrated a fascination with shiny objects. Necklaces made of glossy marine snail shells have been dated back nearly 135,000 years, while shiny crystals have been found in prehistoric burials, suggesting the allure they once held for their original owners. The pageantry of nearly every religion has long been enhanced by dazzling displays, from the gilded statues of Buddhist temples and the gleaming mosaics of Muslim mosques and Byzantine churches, to the bejeweled altarpieces and reliquaries of Gothic cathedrals. As both kings and gods, Hawaiian and Andean royalty alike donned garments entirely covered with brilliant feathers to proclaim their significance, while their counterparts in other cultures wore crowns of gold and gems. High status and desirability have always been signaled by the transformative effects of reflected light. Recent research indicates that our brains may be hard-wired to associate glossy surfaces with water (tinyurl.com/glossy-as-water). If so, the impulse drawing us toward them may have evolved as a survival mechanism. There may also be subconscious associations with other survival necessities. Gold has been linked to fire or the sun, the source of heat, light, and plant growth. The glitter of beads or sequins may evoke nighttime stars needed for finding one’s way. The flash of jewels may recall an instinctive association with eyes. In jungles as well as open grasslands, both prey and predator can be so well camouflaged that only the glint of an eye might reveal a lurking presence.

  • Tricia Waddell Demonstrates the Basics of Bead
    Series 100 www.itsseweasytv.com 108-2 Tricia Waddell shows how embellishments and embroidery can update store bought clothes. Bead Embroidery Basics By Tricia Waddell, Editor in chief of Stitch magazine Display projects: Store-bought cardigan with sequins and beads added; store-bought knit top with split stitch embroidery and seed beads added; store-bought dress with focal bead and small beads added as a trim Dress up sewing projects or store-bought items with simple bead embroidery. Use these bead embroidery techniques for securing beads to fabric. Backstitch Use this technique to secure beads on fabric for both line and fill-in patterns. 1. Bring the needle up, strong on 3 to 5 beads, lay them on the fabric and snug them up to eliminate gaps. Take the needle back down into the fabric. Try to take the needle down perpendicular to the fabric, or the end of the beads may bow out. 2. Bring the needle back up between the second and third beads and take the needle through the third and fourth beads again. Do not go back into the fabric at this point. Instead, pick up 3 to 5 more beads, go back into the fabric, and repeat the backstitching process until the line is complete. Stacked Sequins and Beads Use this technique to secure individual sequins with a small seed bead stacked on top. Make sure the size of the bead does not completely obscure the sequin. 1. Bring the needle up through the fabric and string on the sequin and bead. 2. Take the needle back down through the sequin.
